Letrozole as premedication of high intensity focused ultrasound treatment of uterine fibroids: A retrospective observation study

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2022
BackgroundNo reports on Letrozole as a pretreatment before ablation of uterine fibroid with high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU), so a retrospective observation study was performed to evaluate the response of different pre-HIFU medication.MethodsWe ...

Focused Ultrasound for Neuromodulation [PDF]

open access: yesNeurotherapeutics, 2019
For more than 70 years, the promise of noninvasive neuromodulation using focused ultrasound has been growing while diagnostic ultrasound established itself as a foundation of clinical imaging. Significant technical challenges have been overcome to allow transcranial focused ultrasound to deliver spatially restricted energy into the nervous system at a ...

Accelerated focused ultrasound imaging [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Ultrasonics, Ferroelectrics and Frequency Control, 2009
One of the most basic trade-offs in ultrasound imaging involves frame rate, depth, and number of lines. Achieving good spatial resolution and coverage requires a large number of lines, leading to decreases in frame rate. An even more serious imaging challenge occurs with imaging modes involving spatial compounding and 3-D/4-D imaging, which are ...

Focused Ultrasound Surgery of the Brain [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Radiology Reports, 2013
Transcranial magnetic resonance imaging guided focused ultrasound surgery (tcMRIgFUS) has recently taken root as a novel, noninvasive alternative to traditional neurosurgery. The ability to treat a variety of neurological diseases by precisely focusing ultrasound energy to a desired target deep inside the brain while leaving collateral structures ...
